In The Water!!!!

Saturday, May 10, 2008 1 comments

My friend Trevor makes a weekly trip down to Bolsa Chica and was happy to have me come along. We met at his house and loaded the boards at 5:30. The 40 min drive to the beach was great, drinking coffee and chatting about the great day this was to be. Also a bit of talk about the early arrival of stingrays in the area, and of course the recent shark attacks. But we figured the odds were in our favor and we were going to have some fun!! When we pulled in the parking lot at few of Trevors usual Harbour buddies were already there. Everyone was interested in the board, and thought it looked great (thanks to all for the compliments). Then someone mentioned the dead sealion on the beach. Figured our odds got better, as now if there was a shark he would be full........


I waxed the board last night. It was difficult covering up the wood, I guess the show side is now the bottom!!!








It was a grey day, and the surf was small and choppy. Not ideal, but a GREAT day. I was able to stand up on a few waves, and Trevor gave it a go catching two nice rides.


Sorry, no pictures of me standing, but I did get a couple of good rides!!!
I am extreamly happy with this board, and counting the days to get back out.
